The earthquake in Haiti has provoked strong reactions and responses throughout the US.
One formerly sane tele-evangelist says it is because God is getting after the country for making a pact with the devil 300+ years ago. What God was so backed up on things to destroy he could not get to Haiti’s destruction until now? Why is Vegas still standing then?
The news media is flooded with news for some of the right and wrong reasons. Until the networks stroke a big relief check I will suspect their motives to be”if it bleeds it leads”.
One response I like is that of Larry Winget. For those not familiar with him he is not a motivational speaker but an irritational speaker. He is brusque, uncompromising and his presentation is saturated in sarcasm and irony.
On his Facebook post yesterday he made an incredible offer. If anyone would give at least $35 to Haitian relief through Feed the Children, Larry will give the donor a CD/DVD combo. I jumped on that right away. It does not matter what combo it is, anything Larry puts out is priceless when applied.
Also, it supports a group that sends 91 cents of every dollar donated to direct aid as opposed to huge administration and fundraising costs.
For those who want to help Haitian people, have the money well spent and be enriched with ideas from Winget go to this link, http://www.feedthechilden.org/ make a donation of at least $35 and then email your receipt and mailing address to info@larrywinget.com.
Let me know when you do.
Also, once you receive and enjoy the Winget material tell me what you think.
Better still, tell others how you like Winget.
